Typical surly. Let’s be real, he’s not leaving Tech unless it’s a true blue blood or Baylor. I’d be more nervous, if I was a Tech fan, when Self retires 

I knew Beard would leave for Texas if called, that was just a given even if Tech fans didn't want to admit it. He had never really kept it a secret that he wanted to coach at his alma mater some day. With McCasland, there's always the albatross of Baylor being his alma mater, but I don't think it's anywhere near a given like it was with Beard. It would be very hard for him to find himself in a better situation than the one he has, and I'm not just referring to the Tech basketball program. It's hard to imagine a better fit overall for both parties.

Anything can happen, of course, but anyone that seriously thought McCasland was going to entertain the A&M job for a second has their brain permanently stuck in the past when Tech didn't have the money, facilities, or credibility as a program to compete at the highest level consistently.

When the coach of the 2nd runner-up in the Southern conference and 118th ranked team in Kenpom becomes available, you gotta snap him up.

He has an Aggie first name and great high school credentials … dream hire

I’m going to go against the grain and say this was a really good hire. This guy plays a 40 mins of hell style game that will let aggy go after super athletes who aren’t 4-5* type guys (who aren’t going to go there anyway).

Don’t disagree in theory but it’s aggy so it’s doomed to fail. Poor guy doesn’t have a chance. And they think they’re a blueblood in everything so it’s hilarious when reality hits them like a load of bricks.

He’s Steve Rodgers before the procedure

Wait,  that's Steve Austin.  Abort! Abort! Abort!!!

From Jimbo hiring onward, who is on charge of A&M hiring? I can't think of a single good call hire they have made.

Must have hired Dewey Cheatem & Howe to run the show

Bing!

Holy shit, he was coaching high school just six years ago. That means: 1) he has very limited college coaching experience, and 2) he hasn’t served as an assistant to anyone of value. This is truly shocking in how bad a hire this was.

Add to that he has never lived anywhere other than Birmingham. His recruiting contacts are trash.

Well, their baseball coach had never been a HC at any level (including HS). Not only that, he hadn’t even been a paid assistant for more than a year before taking their HC offer.

I can’t imagine texags isn’t saying wtf on this hire. Now I can imagine looch spinning the hire but no way posters aren’t asking wtf is this? 

All the Auburn/Alabama posters on Reddit love the hire. Of course they are all probably ex girlfriends and/or cousins or he taught their kids health class like 3 years ago so a little bias. He could be the next Oats, but outliers are outliers for a reason.

i mean yeah it really is. absolutely nobody in the sec should be even interviewing this guy much less hiring him. his resume hardly even exists. he appears to be wildly unqualified for this job. the fact that they thought they’d get beard and settled for a HS coach is hilariously wild.

aggy is aggy but they are still an SEC program that takes millions of dollars to run. It's like hiring a 10 year old to manage a Chik-fil-a.

this guy won 65% of his games at samford, which was his first job after coaching high school. this is *literally* unprecedented levels of aggie basketball misery. hilarious. 

If he can beat the w-sips twice in the same season at samford, think how many times he can beat the t-sips when he's got the resources of the Jugger-not Fightin Texas Aggie Network behind him?!?! Whoop1!!!1!

Anybody is qualified for an aggy job. Just have to be able to cash a check.
